 An amazing site surrounded by beautiful countryside. We stayed for 3 nights and enjoyed the peace and tranquillity. There are many walks from the site in Mortimers forest as well as mountain bike trails. There was also a Park Run on the Saturday morning at the nearby Vinnells car park. The lady owner was friendly and welcoming and had a wealth of information about the site. Great for bird watching, as well as listening to the owls and the cuckoo. The facilities are clean and adequate. We stayed one hardstanding pitch with EHU for £20 p/n. A gem of a site and would definitely visit again. You need to ensure you are stocked up with supplies as there is nothing in walking distance. Just perfect.

What a wonderful site.
I just had a few very enjoyable days there.
Beautiful quiet peaceful site just what I was looking for.
No traffic noise, no light polution from streetlights just a gloriously peaceful spot.
This site has everything I want, helpful friendly owners, clean tidy showers, peace and quiet.
As I was on my own this didn't affect me but the main camping field seemed to be a perfect playground for the children who were on site. Plenty of room to run round and have fun without disturbing anyone, whilst mum and dad could put their feet up and watch the fun.
This is also one of the few sites that allow you to have a fire, they will hire you a firepit and sell you firewood. What better way to spend the evening than sat around the fire?
I noticed that a lot of the people I spoke to had been before and enjoyed it so much they came back again. I can certainly understand this and I expect I shall be another one who comes back again.
P. S. Ignore the fact that I posted as 'man in a tent', I got older and graduated to a caravan.

We've just had four very enjoyable nights here.
Access is straightforward and directions to the site very clear.
Nice toilet block and showers, great views and the owners are very friendly and helpful.
It's possible to walk into Ludlow if you're reasonably fit, it's about an hour and a half and can be done almost all off road and a very quiet lane but there is one fairly steep hill for about 1/2 mile. You walk about 200 yards on the road you arrived on but we had no problems.
The owners ask that you're careful with water as it's from their own bore hole but water saving is common sense anyway. I'm sure it would sell well bottled, very high quality.

Been here before, and was impressed then, as now. Angela was away when we arrived, so didn't pay until Saturday evening, but it wasn't a concern, unlike the weather, which was really wet and windy. Facilities were clean and well presented, despite the muddy conditions, and the field was well grassed; not manicured, but even. There aren't set plots, fire pits are available for hire, and wood to burn in them. The driveway is a bit harum scarum, but that just adds to the charm for me. All this at the most reasonable price of £7 per person per night. Close enough to Ludlow for the sights, far enough into the sticks to be quiet, and plenty of forest walking for my dog. This is a jewel of a site, so please avoid it at all costs, mainly because I'm selfish and like quiet sites in the middle of nowhere.

Really helpful, genuine people. We rocked up at near 10pm and not a clue what to co-op all the gear & no idea as they say! Angela and Les were fab. Helped and willing. A super site, not pretentious or pompus just clean and well organised. Not cramped. All the things you need. I'd go again and not hesitate to recommend.

We just spent 4 nights camping and thoroughly enjoyed it. Lovely plain natural site. No fuss, very relaxed. Clean facilities with warm/hot showers, cleaned daily. Very laid back. Amazing setting in the middle of the forest. We were in the middle of the lambing for the farmer who obviously works extremely hard. She was lovely and allowed our two children to go into the lambing shed to see the lambs born that night. A very peaceful site. We were a family of four with two dogs and a large tent - the site was just perfect for us all. It was Easter weekend and not overly busy. Will hopefully return in the future. 3/4 minute drive into Ludlow town. Thank you to Angela for a lovely stay at the farm. The Beaumont family xxxx

Went to this site because it was near Ludlow and Mortimers Forest. Both of which were perfect. Mind you Ludlow may not be everybodys cup of tea these days. Red trouser alert. The site itself is very good with some hard standings which we had. The views over towards west Shropshire, Herefordshire and East Wales are really very good and the sunsets are really something else. The toilets and showers, appear to be really good and modern. The owners are active farmers and there are sheep and cattle in many fields. Plus horses from the farm livery. We loved walking down the drive to Mortimers Forest. But there are walks from the site up the hill. All in all an excellent visit. It is a very dark site at night which is good.

One of the few sites we have stayed in with really good views. My wife says this is her favourite campsite. Being on a hill I guess it could be blowy but it was lovely sitting out admiring the views. It's on a farm and they are hand rearing a lamb which was fun for our animal mad 3 year old. We stayed once mid week and it was very, very peaceful. At the weekend it seems to attract quite a lot of 3 or 4 family groups so gets a bit noisier. There aren't really enough facilities for when it's busy, not helped by some toilet locks missing. There is no campsite sign at the road, which is daft, and you need to look out for the farm name 1/4 mile from where our sat-nav said the farm is. There is no play area but a rope swing and lots of space to run around meant it's fun for kids. There looked like there were 4 hard standing pitches but most were just in fields. It felt like there was lots of space and it was far from full on the first weekend of the summer holidays. £18. 50 for a motorhome with 2 adults, 2 young kids and electric is decent value. Overall a lovely farm site.

We booked this as a change from Caravan club sites, which seem a little bit sterile. What a great choice. A lovely camp site on a farm in one of the most beautiful areas we have stayed on. In a forest on a re-entrant overlooking Shropshire and into Wales. Stunning views and plenty of walks without having to drive anywhere. Nice clean and updated toilet shower block. Selection of pitches with and without EHU, hard standing and grass. Ludlow is 5 minutes by car. A little hidden gem.

Super campsite, beautiful setting, lovely, clean, brand new loos and shower block. Apparently washing up facilities are on their way, although this wasn't an issue for us. There was a generous bag of wood for a fiver and loved the large fire bowls. After a night of rain we awoke to truly magical views. It is a hike to Ludlow, but through the woods that's gorgeous too. We loved it and definitely plan to go again.

WOW! What a great site. We stayed on one of the few hardstanding and level pitches with our 9M motorhome which fitted on without a problem. The site is on the site of a hill so it gives tremendous views, it is in the middle of nowhere so is very quiet, no phone signal, and at night pitch black, (So take a torch). The toilet facilities are modern, almost new and spotless. Despite the site being quite busy with visitors, to the very popular food festival the facilities where still clean. The shower cubicles are enormous and the biggest I have ever seen. Plenty of hot water on a push button system. The owners are very friendly, helpful and busy as it is a working farm so there is not always someone there to greet you. Definitely recommend if you want somewhere quiet with great facilities. Get a way

What a lovely site. We called up on the day we came and were told that they had space which was a pleasant surprise in August. As such I wasn't really expecting much, but it was fantastic.
The location is about ten minutes outside Ludlow into a forest area. The area is great for walks with dogs which were happily accepted on the site provided kept under control. The site itself in large and very well spaced out with plenty of electric hookups. Given the size of the site the toilet block by the farm could be quite a distance so bear this in mind when choosing a pitch. Given the site size we were able to chat quietly into the night as a group without disturbing anyone which was nice, if we went again we would have done so round one of the kindly provided fire pits.
The site itself had fantastic views across the forest and surrounding area. The location and the site in general were very peaceful. It was a working farm which seemed a really interesting place to the kids that were with some of the other campers. The prices were reasonable too. The on site facilities were spotless and plentiful the couple of times I used them on a one night visit.
Bare in mind that this site is well away from any shops, pubs or other facilities. The fantastic views and peace come as a result, but I would be lying if I said it wouldn't be handy to have a more local shop. As a group with three cars we were able to drive to Ludlow, park up then get a taxi back (six seater with two dogs for £20). However you won't be walking to grab a morning paper or back from your day out. Ludlow itself is really nice and well worth a visit.
Overall very pleased and will definitely be back again, recommended.

Absolutely loved this hidden gem of a campsite - in the forest above ludlow. The campsite is about 10 mins drive from the centre of the town - so not walkable for a meal - but why you would want to is completely beyond me anyway! Its a working farm, so you have to drive up through a field of sheep - ( we had a minor incident with one escaping whilst we had the gate open - but it was good fun to do my sheepdog impression to return her to the fold!).
There are a number of fields - some slightly slopey - but plenty of room to find a flat pitch, and plenty of hookups available. Firebowls are available to hire - and its lovely to look across the campsite at lots of little campfires. The views are spectacular - down the valley towards Hay on Wye, or across to the forest - its not an Area of outstanding natural beauty for nothing!
The washrooms have recently been done, and are fab - clean and modern with plenty of free, unlimited hot showers. The washing up area needs a bit of TLC, but there is a sign saying that this is being planned so should be even better soon.
Ludlow is a lovely little town, if you do want to get out and about, and the forest has walking and MTB trails. A great base for a weekend break or a full week. WE'll definitely be back

Firstly this is a brilliant campsite. Large fields so no need to be next to anyone. Fire pits are a really nice touch I think and plenty of electric hook-ups for those that want them (we don't but thought I should mention it). Views on a night were amazing and the only sound is the sheep and cows.
New toilet/shower facilities are very nice. The only criticism would be the water pressure is not great at times - there were very few people at the site when we were there so this may need to be looked at for when the campsite is full.
I would certainly stay at this campsite over and again it is a wonderful spot - peaceful and relaxing. The owners did come around and speak to us one of the nights and were very nice. A really great site.

Fantastically peaceful, beautifully located campsite. We stayed here for a week; the only sound was sheep and birds. Surrounded by Mortimer forest, it was away from the main road so no traffic noise at all. 3 Large fields (so no crowding issues) with hook ups if needed.
Brand new toilet and shower block - 4 toilets and two showers in each, which were free and hot and spotlessly clean.
Owners very pleasant with offers of help if needed.
Excellent value for money, £12. 00 a night for two of us (We didn't need hook up).
Would definitely recommend for those wanting to get away from it all and who love the peace and quiet.
Having read the previous comments about the washing facilities, this issue certainly has now been addressed.
